Praise for NOT INSIDE THIS HOUSE! (written by Kevin Lewis and
illustrated by David Ercolini)
"The precisely composed ink drawing, painting, and Photoshop
illustrations, which set the tale in the halcyon age when men wore
hats and women donned aprons, add an old-fashioned charm and much
humor to the story." --SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL
Ercolini "shines in the imagining of megafauna lodged in a suburban
house: the elephant falling through the floor into the mother's
bathroom; the moose antler-shaped gashes on either side of the
boy's bedroom door; the submerged first floor with houseplants
afloat." --PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
